I'm only 37, but I ought to qualify. All the men in my family die at 74, so I'm officially halfway done. Doesn't get much more "mid" than that.
My father is convinced he has only 6 more years to live (he'll be 68 in December). My brothers and I try to convince him otherwise, but he doesn't seem to want to hear it. He got a clean bill of health in his last doctor visit, but he said grandpa was healthy as a horse till he died at 73 & 11 months, so that's no indicator.

Rockers? Rockers are for young parents with babies. Forget the rockers, as in chairs. We're past all that. If any grandchildren want to visit, they'll just have to crawl on the floor. I was thinking about a hammock for the front porch, however.
As for musical rockers, we have a collection which caters to all tastes, including those with nostalgia for such 60s favourites as Jagger and Stewart.
Faraway, your early-onset short term memory loss guarantees you a place!
Omni C., don't fret about dying young, for heaven's sake! Get a guest pass and go work out in our top-of-the-line gym instead.

Miss Cramer's here so I think it's okay for me to sneak in this post.
Thank you for clearing up my "wbte" quandry.
Is it okay if I go ahead and hang the hammock on the porch? Maybe Cobie would like to join me?

Whats that speak up gosh durned whispering, in my day children stood up when an adult entered the room, and spoke up! And they took their caps off an all. Now where's that Hammock?

A hammock? Naw, that'll be for later in the day when it's nap time. For now though may I suggest port and cigars in the War Room? The fireplace, the comfy chairs and the robo-butler are sounding awfully attravtive right now. ...and none of that no-carb, low-fat, no-salt junk for lunch if you please.

I have the body of an 18 year old, but the soul and mind the was created at the beginning from the Fires Of Creation. Does that mean I qualify?

Yellow Kid, through the magic of Legion World, you may eat Beef Wellington and trifle to your heart's content at Club MLC, with no ill effects.
Viv, you're welcome here as a guest of course - but you really must be experiencing some of the early-creakiness and sagging energy of middle age to be a full-fledged member.
And I forgot to tell CJ that feeling too old to be young and too young to be old should qualify him as a middle ager, on probation. Maybe his mother lied about his birthdate...

Now, this is my kind of place. Pour this 45-ster a Rum and Diet Coke, if you please.
Does being whimsy-challenged qualify as being in a (somewhere-in-)life crisis? Around here, it does, methinks {rueful smile, as he sips his drink}

Mmmmmmmmm. Beef Wellington, yum yum. And a fully sherry trifle with "real" cream. if you can promise me fresh baked thick cut breead with real butter and home made jam for breakfast, I may never eat anywhere else again. Sit gingerly down in chair saving his aching back from further strain.

My get-up-and-go got up and went when I heard that middle agers get to eat so divinely with no ill effects.
Oy! My back, my aching back! May I have some more beef wellington, please?
Excuse me, Far, I'd like some of that fresh baked bread with extra real butter. *tee hee*

Most of use middle agers have to be very careful about what we eat in real life. I think it's only in this make-believe world that we can eat anything without ill effect. And beef wellington won't hurt you, as long as you don't each the crust.

But Semi, the crust is the best bit!
Legion Worlds NINE - wait, there's even more ongoing amazing adventures? Yup, and you'll only find them in the Bits o' Legionnaire Business Forum.

I brought a few bottles of fullbodied merlot that will go fabulously with this dinner.

Damnation, I enjoy everybody's company too much to keep this place age-restricted.
But we're still catering solely to the needs and interests of the oft-neglected middle-aged.

Would anyone like to join me in a bountiful lobster and shrimp feast, today? It will be accompanied with real drawn butter, caesar salad, fresh bread, and an exquisitely dry chardonnay!
